Initially hosted by Marseille (France), the second TRANSAT Tritium School will happen from 14 to 18 June 2021.
This 5-days event will consists of virtual invited lectures. The young generation of researchers working in fusion and fission research and development are encouraged to participate to gain knowledge. They will learn more on the challenges in the cross-cutting activities in fission and fusion on tritium together with waste management issues and biological studies applied to toxicology and dosimetry.
Participation is FREE of charge.
Interested will only need to register to the School. Registered participants will then receive an access code to join the virtual lectures and any other information.
The School will happen in afternoon hours, European central time, to make it available also for attendees outside Europe with different time zones.
